From study essentials to wellness tech to products that’ll make your room certified dorm goals, the following deals will save you hundreds of dollars and earn you some much-needed campus cred in the process.

Study Essentials

Let’s start with study essentials, since, presumably, the reason you’re sinking yourself into five-figure student loan debt is to learn something. When I was in college, I preferred to study in silence. But if you’re the type who needs some sound to help you zone out while you work, these Samsung Galaxy Earbuds should be calling your name. They can easily be paired via Bluetooth with tablets like the Lenovo Ideapad or Apple iPad Air, both of which are perfect for students who prefer studying with eBooks over print textbooks. And if you’re more of a laptop studier, a Samsung External Hard Drive or a Logitech Wireless Mouse may be some accessories worth looking into as well.

Whether you’re a student-athlete recovering from grueling games or a party animal who made the mistake of enrolling in an early morning class, establishing some sort of wellness routine can make all the difference during a difficult semester. For the former group, this Therabody Mini Massage Gun is absolutely essential. And, unlike that liberal arts degree, it might be something you’ll actually use well after you graduate. For night owls, knuckleheads, and booze hounds, this sunrise alarm clock by Hatch will be your saving grace. Some other wellness products you should add to your cart for back-to-school season include this Philips Trimmer for dudes mature enough to keep themselves clean-cut and this Samsung Smartwatch that’ll have them looking a whole different type of fresh.

Dorm Goals

Speaking of looking fresh, what’s the point if you don’t have a decked-out dorm room to invite your crush back to after she notices your crisp cut and dope watch? The key to any on-campus bachelor pad is owning things that make people want to come and hang out. The library is closed and she needs somewhere to print her paper after hours? No problem. You just bought an HP Envy Printer and a TP-Link Wi-Fi System. It’s finals week and she’s over for an all-night study session that actually involves studying all night? Boy, you sure do have a weird habit of attracting procrastinators (I thought we talked about that!), but luckily for you both, you’ve got a Keurig Coffee Maker in your room. Once you’ve got some downtime, you two can kick back and watch this 43" Insignia TV – but only after you’ve thoroughly cleaned your room with this Cordless Stick Vacuum.

You deserve to play just as hard as you’re going to work next semester. So after you’ve stocked up on study essentials, wellness tech, and dorm upgrades, don’t forget to grab a few goodies to make your college experience as enjoyable as possible. Jam out in the quad with a JBL Earbuds and snap some pics of your friends dancing with an InstaMax Mini. Or maybe zip around campus on an electric scooter and capture it all with a Go Pro Hero12. Whatever you decide to buy for back-to-school season, make sure you grab at least one essential to put a smile on your face while you grind you way toward a brighter future.
